Frei Otto 2015 Pritzker Architecture Prize
The 2015 Pritzker Architecture Prize, was announced yesterday, two weeks before the scheduled date, after the recipient, Frei Otto, died at the age of 89. He is best known for his iconic and groundbreaking roof canopies designed for the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich.
Frei Otto, born almost 90 years ago in Germany, has spent his long career researching, experimenting, and developing a most sensitive architecture that has influenced countless others throughout the world. The lessons of his pioneering work in the field of lightweight structures that are adaptable, changeable and carefully use limited resources are as relevant today as when they were first proposed over 60 years ago. He has embraced a definition of architect to include researcher, inventor, form-finder, engineer, builder, teacher, collaborator, environmentalist, humanist, and creator of memorable buildings and spaces.
